What the numbers say

Short term

The latest readings
  • The latest figure is 110.7 for Aug 2026, unchanged from Jul 2026 and unchanged on the same month a year earlier.
  • The change on a year earlier averaged 0.0% over the last three months, against 0.0% in the three months before: the year-on-year pace is broadly unchanged.

Long term

The record as a whole
  • Trend growth over the past 7 years is 2% a year (least-squares fit on the logarithm; R² 0.87, a close fit, so the series has followed a steady path).
  • Measured end to end, compound growth is 2.1% a year over five years.
  • The latest figure is the highest on record.
  • Year-on-year growth has typically varied by about 2.1 percentage points (one standard deviation) over the past five years.

How to read this series

National consumer price index. The index itself and its thirteen spending divisions. The level has no meaning on its own (it is set to 100 in a base period); what matters is how fast it changes. Divisions carry different weights, so a large move in a small division barely shifts the total.

  • Recent periods are often revised as fuller data arrive. The version comparison below shows what MMA has changed since this site began keeping copies.

Terms such as percentage points, flows and stocks, and trend growth are explained in How to read the tracker.
